First full day in Shenyang
December 13th, 2007
Becky here… so glad to be here finally. Had my MRI yesterday – can’t believe that happened that quickly – waited for months and months and months to have an MRI back home. Waiting for them to come draw some blood this morning at 7:00 am. Then we’ll have some kind of breakfast. Kevin took Kim on a walk around the neighbourhood and found a fruit store where the fruit guy is going to remember her the next time she comes!! so we can have a baby watermelon and baby mandarin oranges, baby bananas- is there a theme here?! Waiting to get our schedule of treatments etc today so we can plan around that. We have a plan for WalMart, and a better plan for spa treatments down the street. There are a few places offering mannies, peddies, massages. Kevin pointed them out and was saying how good they are. Pat will come too and have a foot pampering.
The people in the hospital are amazing. Such friendly faces coming in to see us. We will take some pics and post them. Everyone is super helpful – of course there are some language issues but we muddle through. Tony and Lucy speak very good English and they are here during day shifts every day, i think.
Anyway, we’ll post again. The internet connection is really good here in the hospital so far. Kim says it’s better than in Duncan!! Maybe she’ll have to upgrade Ariel’s connection when she’s back. Apparently Lennox is getting a tooth and Kim is sad, thought she and Lennox had an agreement that he wasn’t going to grow or change while she was away… aw well.
take care everyone. be well. we will be… Becky
ps we love comments!!!

Happy to hear all went FAIRLY well on the trip.
Inform all the powers that be on your return very loudly and distinctly how swiftly the MRI was done….even quicker than USA and they are definitely not slow on the draw.
Take care and know that this household is bombarding heaven for you.

Hi Becky, Pat and Kim
I am so excited for you I can’t stand it. I am truly happy you are all being treated so well – of course, I expected nothing less.
I couldn’t remember when you were leaving, I thought it was December 15th so I was going to phone you, Becky, before you left to wish you a great and successful trip. I still wish that for you even though I can’t say it to you in person (by telephone) ha ha. Keep us informed – this blog is fantastic. I love you all and truly hope you won’t even need that wheelchair, becky, when you return.
Will read your blog every day. I better go, probably far too long of a comment????
Love, Erna and Wally

This blog is fantastic. It’s almost as good as being there. Sorry, I didn’t phone you before you left – thought you were leaving the 15th. Was wrong. Keep us informed as much as you possibly can. Love, Erna and Wally

Hi Becky,
I am so glad you are there to. I am so happy you had your MRI today, and that your treatments will be starting soon. I really wasn’t expecting to see another post up so quickly. What an awesome thing for Kevin to be there. Isn’t it amazing how everything happens for a reason. You know somebody in China from Estevan. It is all meant to be. I love you lots and pray for you all the time.
Love Teresa
